the one group that was arguably most negatively affected by this religious storm was the Jews. As a small population mainly living in Central Europe, the Jews were subjected to the ebbs and flows of popular opinion among the larger religious groups that dominated the individual nations themselves. Although the most severe anti-Semitic actions that had occurred in Europe including the expulsion of the Jews from Spain in 1492 and the Polish King’s actions in 1454 were brought…

As anyone like myself who has heard of the Holocaust era, we can only imagine what a devastating and tragic time that must’ve been for the Jewish people. Imagine being torn away from your families and your basic necessities, and then thrown into captivity for no plausible reason. Then tortured like you were some kind of criminal who deserved to be mistreated and dehumanized. As I hear more about this horrific event that took place and listen to stories from some of the victims, I can’t help…

America and the Allies took proper action in rescuing the Jews. Although news of the Holocaust was not publicized well as the government concentrated its efforts on trying to win World War II, evidence suggests that Anti-Semitic attitudes in the United States were the most dominant factors in deciding what steps America would take in response to the news of the Holocaust. There are many theories as to why people harbor prejudice against the Jews. Jews were noticed because of their visible…

done something for someone who can never repay you.” Once said English writer John Bunyan. In the book The Hiding Place, everyone agrees that Jews were being taken by the Germans, but some people believe Corrie Ten Boom should have hidden Jews while others believe Corrie should not have hidden Jews.

“Propaganda works on the general public from the standpoint of an idea and makes them ripe for the victory of this idea, while the organization achieves victory by the persistent, organic, and militant union of those supporters who seem willing and able to carry on the fight for victory.” Adolf Hitler wrote these words in his book Mein Kampf (1926) in which he advocated the use of propaganda to spread the ideals of National Socialism, such as racism and anti-Semitism. After Germany being…

H. Henry Sianson said that he, “Lived in Berlin...lived like a normal German… Conservative Jew… observed Jewish laws…”. Margaret Lambert said, “... never made a difference if you were a Jew or a non-Jew.” These quotes elaborate on the fact that Jews were quite normal citizens before 1933, before the reign of the National Socialist German Workers’ Party, or the Nazis.
